Saliva as Source of Detection for SARS-CoV-2
Evaluation of Saliva as Source of Detection for SARS-CoV-2
Background:
Nasopharyngeal (NP) swabbing is being used to test for SARS-CoV-2 infection. For this, a swab is inserted deep into the back of the nose to collect a sample. It can cause discomfort for most people. Researchers want to find an easier way to collect samples.
Objective:
To learn if testing for SARSCoV-2 with a saliva sample only, a nasal swab from just the front part of the nostril only, or a saliva sample plus a nasal swab gives results that are as accurate as the NP swab.
Eligibility:
NIH staff members age 18 and older who are taking part in NIH CC SARS-CoV-2 surveillance.
Design:
The Occupational Medical Service (OMS) collects NP swabs as part of standard NIH staff screening. Participants will give 1 or 2 saliva samples and 1 or 2 nasal swabs when their NP swab is collected by OMS. If their NP swab was already collected, their OMS record will be reviewed for the result.
If the NP swab result is positive, the participant will have another NP swab. At that time, they will also give 1 or 2 saliva samples and 1 or 2 nasal swabs. If the NP swab result is negative, they will give 1 or 2 saliva samples and 1 or 2 nasal swabs the next time they have an NP swab.
For the saliva sample, participants will spit into a tube.
For the nasal swab, the inside of the front part of the nostril will be swabbed.
Participation ends after the study samples are collected. Participants can choose to keep giving saliva and nasal swab samples each time they have an NP swab.
